This story has been debunked by a number of sources.
But think of the bright side.. Surely not that hilly
has gotten her role as the new senator from NY don't
you beleave that she will in short order circle file
ol' billy boob ??
And Ol Ted dosen't want hanoi jane back so now ol billy
the boob can hook up with jane the looser and console
each other.
hilly already is the darling of the left media which means
the down side is we are going to be stuck having to listen
to her barfing her socialist crud on a consistant basis..
